Speed Of Sound

Lyrics

Coldplay

How long before I get in?Before it starts, before I begin? How long before you decide? Before I know what it feels like? Where To, where do I go?If you never try, then you'll never knowHow long do I have to climb,Up on the side of this mountain of mine?

Look up, I look up at nightPlanets are moving at the speed of lightClimb up, up in the trees Every chance that you getIs a chance you seizeHow long am I gonna standWith my head stuck under the sand? I'll start before I can stopBefore I see things the right way up

All that noise, and all that soundAll those places I have foundAnd birds go flying at the speed of soundTo show you how it all began Birds came flying from the undergroundIf you could see it then you'd understand?

Ideas that you'll never findAll the inventors could never designThe buildings that you put upJapan and China all lit upThe sign that I couldn't read Or a light that I couldn't seeSome things you have to believe But others are puzzles, puzzling me

All that noise, and all that soundAll those places I have foundAnd birds go flying at the speed of soundTo show you how it all beganBirds came flying from the underground If you could see it then you'd understand Ah when you see it then you'll understand?

All those signs, I knew what they meantSome things you can inventSome get made, and some get sentOh Birds go flying at the speed of soundTo show you how it all beganBirds came flying from the undergroundIf you could see it then you'd understandAh, when you see it then you'll understand?
